Uni-ball Removal Tool

[Yukon Joe]

Last time I changed out the worn uniball on my RPG UCA's I rented a ball joint press from Auto Zone. The thing was a POS. It was mashed and broke, but I got it to work.

I wouldn't mind having a tool like this, thanks for posting @RDFTS.

Does anyone know what you need to change out the stock LCA ball joint?

Should be able to just use the typical ball joint press/tool. The c clamp looking thing. You will need the correct cups and puck tho.

No. Uniballs wear out but don't really fail to the point of replacement. Are you bringing 300m replacement pins?

Ok, I admit I am dumb here on your question. I probably know what 300m pins might be just not with the terminology. So what exactly is 300m replacement pins?

I've google it but keep coming up with a POS Chrysler 300

The machined pins used in a lot of aftermarket UCAs/LCAs and tie rods.

RPG or SDHQ both sell the uniballs. If you have the part number, you can also buy from Summit Racing. They are all about the same price.

What brand uppers and lowers do you have? You can call them for the part number and source locally. Probably save you shipping and taxes from the US.
